    I've probably said it before, but if not...

    Google 'Cloud' is just another computer, and one in which you have very little control.

    While I use Google Photos/Cloud, I look on it only as a last resort (albeit convenient) backup or a place where I can share photos with family/friends. I would never consider having Google as my only storage repository.

    Cheers,
    Magani

    The original photos are still ok.

    if yuor photos are importent then treat them as such and have a few more backups .
